Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | August 2013 | Divekicks & Dragons

My smile was about a couple games I know that will be getting announced tomorrow.

You are such a tease :/
You know this won't end well with all those unattainable expectations some of us now have.
Better spill the beans right now :)

Top of the page: BUY MUTANT BLOBS ATTACK!!!!!!!!
 
Nah the only PSM stuff I know to be getting announced is leaderboards which should go live on Tuesday night for unknown number of games.

Can u at least confirm you're not talking about Velocity 2x since we already know about that?
Or any other games already announced for that matter.

Yiiiss. Night is slightly more pleasant, thank you.
 
So tomorrow in terms of new annoucements I'd say:
Boarderlands2
Amazing Spiderman
New BEND Project
Some Indies
3rd party exclusive Shahid was talking about
I so want it to be GTA, but I don't think it will be GTA
Velocity 2X for Ps4/Vita
Pricecut



Would be a pretty good show for the Vita.

Don't expect that. Conferences never have that many announcements.

youre forgetting the memory card tier shift

also, i don't know where people got the idea, maybe i missed the rumor - but i don't expect a price drop at all.
 
Seeing as we are going for Vita GC 2013 dreams my dream is for all of the Megaman X games remade like Maverick Hunter X.

I could happen!


:(
 
Verendus said Vita will finally get a little love at Gamescom, but he also said it wouldn't last long. So nobody go crazy here and keep your expectations in check.
 
Can we have a little bony list in anticipation for Gamescom?
It would be fun to see whats on the plate...

Rumored Games:

*Borderlands 2
*The Amazing Spiderman
*CoD: Ghosts (Somewhat debunked)
*Sly Collection
*Injustice
*Rainbow Six (remember?)
*Ass Creed : Rising Phoenix
*Super Secret Shahid Non Port Game that will make us faint and lose a rib but wasn't ever confirmed to be shown at E3 or Gamescom so who knows when we'll ever see the shit

Somewhat Likely:

*God Eater 2 Localization
*New IGC Lineup reveal
*Freedom Wars Info
*Gravity Rush 2

Possibly Likely:

*Bend's New Game
*FFX/X-2 Info

All but Confirmed:

*Vita Price Drop
*New Vita Memory Card Tier
*Dead Nation Showing
*GoW Collection Showing
*Killzone Merc Info
*Tearaway Info
*Vita Pets Info (lmao)
*New Indie Announcements


Please feel free to add more suggestions! I say as a little fun, we should print the full list and cross em out as Gamescom goes on this week!!

Quoted for new page since Gamescom hype is finally tommorow!! Anybody else got anything to add? I wanna make the list have everything we've ever heard these past few months, Then when Gamescom is over, Im gonna strike-through everything we got. See how much Sony loves us!!! Lol

i would add something regarding FFX/X2 showing/release date

and complete out of my ass rumor - announcement of next annual IGC games. hah!
 
So with Spelunky coming I was looking at the achievements for the game on my Steam account.

The achievements look semi impossible!! I'm a complete noob at the game and have only played it around 10 times so far, but how are you supposed to do some of those things?
Complete the game in 8 minutes with no shortcuts... what the?

I'm kind of put off buying the game if the trophies are that hard, I prefer to have as many complete games on my account as possible.

just sell your vita if you're gonna skip games as good as spelunky because of difficult trophies
 
If I do a backup with the content manager to my PC from my 4GB card, I can then restore that backup to my new 32GB card without issue correct? Just want to make sure that actually works.
 
Expectations set to zero - chance of disappointment? 25%

I literally set my modest meter to 0% for E3. I didn't over rationalize... I didn't cook up some fantastic surprise in my head...

I literally just booted up the Sony stream and let it ride...

The only thing I expected was that they would at least announce things for Vita...

And I got BURNED. E3 2013 sucked so bad for a Vita fan.. besides seeing gameplay on the show floor of upcoming titles
 
come to think of it... I may just get all 4 of the Summer Select games just to support and tell Sony that they do it right when games launch with
PS+ Discount
Cross-Play/Cross-Buy!
 
You guys know what kind of website I run. Keep your expectations in check.

The Last of Us 2 Vita/PS4

So shitty old ass indie game ports no one cares about. Typical Shahid! Where is his faint inducing announcement he has been championing for years and which should already have been announced at E3 as he said so many times?
All we get is this indie crap and phone quality games.

Good times to be indie with Sony paying for all that crappy ports instead of funding AAA games. Surely all the ressources are cut from their AAA projects for indie games.

I am clearly joking but this is what some will post tomorrow

It's ExclusiveAAAPSVitaTitles.com, right?

I chuckled :)

Gee thanks for the well thought out response...

I like having games where I feel like I'm completing as much of the content as possible. Having a game sitting on my account at 25% or so completion because of stupidly hard trophies just annoys me alright, sorry if that's a crime.

As I already stated I've bought the game already on Steam, it's not as though I'm not supporting the game at all!

Not buying a fantastic game because the achievements are actually challenging "achievements" is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

I'm ok with them if they're actually achievable...

I'm basically asking if people can actually achieve these goals realistically or are they as difficult as they sound? They read as though you need to be an absolute speed running expert at the game?

And I will state it for the third time if it helps get it into your brains, I BOUGHT THE GAME ALREADY ON STEAM.
 
What about the part where you play the game because it's fun?

Sounds like your library is severely limited in scope if that kind of thing worries you.

Yeah... achievement difficulty shouldn't sway me -- I get trophies/achievements and even hunting -- I have like 75 platinums or more.

However, saying "I won't buy DMC4" or "DMC HD Collection" because there are some near impossible achievements/trophies is ridiculous to me.

To each their own though.

I play it on Steam....

I use trophies as a way of encouraging myself to play as much of my games content as possible.
Previously on old accounts like my 360 I jumped from game to game starting them and never finishing anything, I ended up with titles everywhere that I'd only just cracked and never completed.

Trophies on my PS3/Vita account help me focus on a couple of games at a time and not give up on games too quickly.
 
I'd say impossible trophies like Ninja Gaiden put me off, but really the difficulty of the game itself puts me off.

I will however not buy a game if it has online trophies and I have any doubt it might go offline before I can earn them all.
 
Wait a tic.

You're okay with the achievements being impossible on Steam but not okay with the same set on PS3/Vita?

Read my edit above, I use trophies on my PS3/Vita account as a way to tackle my backlog without jumping around from game to game.
On Steam that ship sailed long long ago, I've got hundreds of games that I've barely played so I just use it as a dumping ground for titles whenever I feel like a muck around.

Anyway it would be nice if somebody actually answered my question as to whether the Spelunky trophies are achievable or not, or do you need to be some speedrunning expert?
